Gabrielle stayed on Jackson's shoulder quietly, resigning herself to fate and let him take her out of Bryan's place. Jackson didn't walk too long before Gabrielle heard Bryan's voices of stopping Jackson's bodyguards.
Followed by Bryan's voice were some hitting and kicking.
Gabrielle suddenly closed her eyes. She didn't bear to listen to the crying and yelling. Taking a deep breath, Gabrielle calmed herself down and said," Jackson, I'm willing to go with you. Can't you leave Bryan alone?"
Jackson didn't respond. He was still furious. He put Gabrielle in the passenger's seat and went to the driver's seat.
He stepped on the oil pedal, and the car raced out. He didn't speak to Gabrielle the whole way.
Jackson didn't say one word. And Gabrielle was afraid to talk.
She would not want to throw herself in the fury of Jackson.
That was odd, as Gabrielle thought. She was not Jackson's somebody. He was, at best, her sugar daddy.
Maybe Gabrielle had to figure it out because she was too curious. And she asked Jackson," Er... do you like me to call you sugar daddy?"
Jackson was putting his feet on the oil pedal and almost turned to a new brake. They almost flew out.
"Sugar daddy?"Jackson asked," Do you call Bryan that?"
Gabrielle was speechless. That didn't make any sense.
Gabrielle immediately shook her head," No. Absolutely not."
"What have you been doing these days?"
Bryan and Gabrielle were alone in the apartment. If they did anything, Jackson would tie both of them up, toast them, and feed their bodies to dogs!
"I swear to the lamp that we didn't do anything."
Gabrielle would slap herself for asking the question. If time could go back, she would never do it.
As she was thinking, she heard Jackson's ringtone.
Jackson tossed the phone over to Gabrielle without any hesitation," Answer it."
Gabrielle was so grateful to the call since it ended Jackson's questioning.
Gabrielle looked down, and the call was from Hill. She knew Hill pretty well and answered," Hill, what is it that you want to speak to Jackson?"
"Miss Gabrielle? I have to speak to Mr. Jackson. It's a matter of emergency."
That meant she should give the phone to Jackson.
But Gabrielle planned to do otherwise. She kept saying," Jackson asked you to tell me. Don't worry. I'll tell him exactly what you said."
Hill hesitated for a moment and said," Please tell Mr. Jackson that we have found the snitch."
Gabrielle's pupils got enlarged since she was the snitch.
Did they find her so fast?
The phone slipped from Gabrielle's hands and fell on her lap.
Jackson looked at her," What happened?"
Gabrielle picked up the phone fast. They were still talking. She hurried to put the ear by her ear, but Jackson beat her to it.
Hill kept talking," The snitch is from Wind. That man wouldn't admit he leaked the information. He said he bet on Evan Howel. So he had the idea to tell him. But he is targeted before he really does it."
Jackson frowned, "So he didn't leak anything?"
"We've searched his phone records. There's nothing substantial."
"Keep digging."
"What will you do about him?"
"We'll hang him upside down from the helicopter and feed him to the sharks. So they could eat his head first."
Gabrielle couldn't help thinking about the image. She almost slipped under the seat.
That guy only thought about leaking the information. And they decided to feed him to sharks. If they found out she was the one that did it, would they tear her body limb by limb by five horses?

Jackson hung up the phone and tossed it back to Gabrielle. She was dozing off and didn't catch it. The phone fell on the ground.
"What are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about tearing a body limb by limb by five horses," Gabrielle suddenly realized where she was," No, ahem, I think if you caught the snitch, would you tear his or her body limb by limb by five horses?"
"Tearing a body limb by limb by five horses?"Jackson sneered," That's an easy way to die."
Was it harsher than that? What would that be?
Gabrielle's look changed immediately. She leaned closer to the door," What if the snitch happens to be someone you know?"
"Even if I let the snitch go, guys from K's Clam would not."
It was the first time Gabrielle thought this snitch thing was more serious than she thought.
Jackson looked at Gabrielle," You aren't the snitch, are you?"

It was the early hours in the morning. Avery was woken up by the alarm. She opened her eyes and saw another man's eyes.
The wind was slightly cold. Avery could tell Evan's look was sensual.
"Why don't you go to sleep?"
Avery wondered if Evan stayed up all night to look at her.
"What is my reward?"
It was Evan that said he didn't want anything more than Avery. But he was keen on getting it.
So Evan had sex with Avery. He now wanted the extra reward. That was nice thinking.
"What? Didn't you say there would be more than kisses and you?"
"You said you didn't want it."
Avery has never seen such a shameless man.
He put his chin on Avery's neck and held her hands above her head...
That was a luring position...
"Do you want to give it or not?"
So the carrot and the stick?
Avery moved," Get off me first so I can grab it."
Avery put on the nightgown and got off the bed. She walked into the changing room, found her suitcase, and took out a brown bottle of drugs from the hidden pocket. She clenched it in her hand.
That was she special glue Charles gave to her.
Since Evan would not admit his true identity, Avery thought she gave him the special glue. Whether he used it or not, she just wanted to tell him she knew.
She finally chose to forgive him.
Avery got up to walk back to the bedroom. There was a knock on the door. It should be maids came to tell them it was time to go.
But the knocking was urgent and fast. Then she heard Tinder's anxious voice," Sir, Princess Claudia is gone."
Was Claudia missing?
Evan has put on clothes and marched over to open the door. He gave Avery a look to tell her to put on some clothes. And he opened the door and left.
He wasn't far. Avery thought he was at the door because she heard Tinder's voice through the open door crack. Tinder said," Princess Claudia and the killer were both gone."
"I've sent a team to go after them. But the desert is so large. It's gonna take time. I've asked for helicopters to come."
Evan looked down at his watch. They had no time to waste. But it put them at a disadvantage if they couldn't find Claudia.
Tinder was anxious too. He made a suggestion," Sir, if we can't find Princess Claudia, how about..."
